Body care topics made simple to help you start and continue to provide the best care to your body

Talking about body care... Did you know that there is almost 22 square feet of skin that covers the body of an adult? It weighs 10-11 lb and comprises almost 16% of total body weight?

With so much skin, how do we begin providing the best body care we can?

The first thing you will hear about skin care is: Hydrate.
Inside and out!
What can water do for you?

Body cells want to maintain a balance of liquid that surrounds them. Lack of water intake can create a disbalance in which the cells start working improperly. Drinking water can help maintain that equilibrium and keep your cells hydrated, both inside and out.

Our reader Aires agrees with me on this one saying: "for great skin, hair & nails: drink water and more water!"

Thank you Aires!

Recommended intake is 6-8 8oz glasses of water a day. This amount is sufficient. While hydrating does a wonderful job keeping our cells active, the skin has to be additionally nourished and treated for the best effect.
